Roland Weber commented on HTTPCORE-47:
--------------------------------------

Hi Oleg,

I don't know what Spring does exactly. The best-match comparison is meant to disambiguate the patterns, and that falls short.
There are two easy ways to disambiguate:

- favor pattern* over *pattern (or vice versa)
- use a LinkedHashMap and favor the pattern added first (or last)

Given the simplicity of either decision, I don't think we should leave the ambiguity in there.

cheers,
  Roland

> HttpRequestHandlerRegistry uses pattern matching to determine the handler to use.
> The best match comparison is exclusively based on pattern length and therefore ambiguos:
> patterns "/ma*" and "*tch" both match "/match".
